The last version of this game I owned was NCAA 04 so I figured since I love college football I'd get this. NCAA 08 is the last year for xbox, so this will forever be the ultimate version of the game. I got it for like 3 bucks so I've been pretty happy with it. The gameplay has definitely improved since 04 and there are lots of new features. The game is fairly buggy, lots of little errors here and there, it looks like the developers didn't really care all that much about the xbox version. A frustrating part of it is if you want to play a season with a low-level team in a lower-level conference good luck on trying to win a national championship (unless you play multiple season to get your program prestige level up). You can be undefeated, win your games by huge margins, and beat numerous ranked teams and still not even sniff the top 25 until the last couple weeks of the season. Totally bogus ranking system, I remember being 11-1 with Purdue and I beat the hell out of both Michigan and Ohio State (who both had at least 2 loses) yet they were both ranked in the top 10 and I was like 23rd or something. Get real EA!Read full review
I love the game it better than ever before and gets better every year. One thing that I would change is you should be able to change the player position at any time during the season so that you can fill in for injury's. I like nebraska be the team starts out thin so if you have injurys in the first year its a struggle to get through even though I have enough players on the team. also you can't use over head view in a dome witch means you can't see your receivers before you throw the ball which sucks.
It appears that EA got it right this year with NCAA (And Madden 08 from what people are saying that have seen it). The game play is smoother this year, with new tackle features such as air born collisions, new offensive blocking moves, defensive moves, and a load of other game play features and trick plays. Where EA has got it right is expanded on the other game modes such as they dynasty mode, where you can scout players by attending their high school games, as well as play your games online (A feature available before, but enhanced). If you like the extras that come with previous versions of this game, you will love these extras because they are better than ever. Give this game a shot, and if you don't like it you can always trade it in for Madden in a month, but I am betting you will like it enough to keep it around for a while!Read full review
